Why Bird Dog keeps getting it wrong on Kelo

Re yesterdays post on the Citgo story, Corzine, and the Kelo decision:

Kelo was decided the way it was because SCOTUS didn't want to decide a local issue�- may their tribe increase.
Citgo could offer it to Audubon or the Conservancy and accomplish the same result.
Kelo is not new law. All railroads were build by condemning private property so railroad companies could provide a service for profit.
IF New Jersey law permits a taking of the property AND New Jersey files an eminent domain suit to take the property, the only possible fight is the fair value of the property.
Connecticut got the message from its citizens and the papers today report the Dems behind a new law to prevent future development takings. NJ could do the same.
